The Service of the Word
THE SCRIPTURE READING John 21: 3-12 Rev. Jan Hryniewicz
Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” They went out and got
into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.
Just after daybreak, Jesus stood on the beach; but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to
them, “Children, you have no fish, have you?” They answered him, “No.” He said to them, “Cast the net to the
right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in because
there were so many fish. That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter
heard that it was the Lord, he put on some clothes, for he was naked, and jumped into the sea. But the other
disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, only about a
hundred yards off.
When they had gone ashore, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish on it, and bread. Jesus said to them,
“Bring some of the fish that you have just caught.” So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore,
full of large fish, a hundred fifty-three of them; and though there were so many, the net was not torn. Jesus
said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” Now none of the disciples dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because
they knew it was the Lord. -NRSVANTHEM A Holy Place Lloyd Larson

PLATFORM GUESTS SISTER SIMONE CAMPBELL, SSS SERMON Sister Simone Campbell is the recently retired Executive Director of NETWORK Lobby for Catholic Social Justice – a federal advocacy organization founded by Catholic Sisters to lobby in Washington, D.C. for policies that mend the gaps in income and wealth in the United States. She has led six cross-country “Nuns on the Bus” trips focused on tax justice, healthcare, economic justice, comprehensive immigration reform, voter turnout, bridging divides in politics and society, and mending the gaps. Sister Simone Campbell wrote the famous “Nuns’ Letter,” considered by many as critically important in convincing Congress to support the Affordable Care Act in 2010, and is the author of “A Nun on the Bus: How All of Us Can Create Hope, Change, and Community,” published by HarperCollins. She has received numerous awards, spoke at the 2012 Democratic National Convention, and has appeared on 60 Minutes, The Colbert Report, and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. She is a religious leader, attorney, and poet with extensive experience in public policy and advocacy for systemic change. REV. JAN HRYNIEWICZ SCRIPTURE AND PRAYER Rev. Jan Hryniewicz has been deeply in love with Ocean Park since her teen years when she attended Camp Ataloa and later served in a variety of capacities for the Christian Youth Conference, from Camp Hasseltine Director, to Dean of the conference to teacher to chaplain to program chair. She served several ABC and UCC churches in Massachusetts and Connecticut as Director of Education and Youth Ministry and was the state youth minister for The American Baptist Churches of Massachusetts for 5 years. Most recently she served as pastor of the Union Church in Biddeford Pool for 15 + years before retiring in January of 2016. She is happy to live year round in Ocean Park with her husband, Ed, and their black lab, Belle.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mission Statement: The purpose of the Ocean Park Association is to affirm the traditions and spiritual
heritage of which we are heirs, through a summer assembly program where Christian worship, principles
and ideals are at the focus; where diversity is celebrated and the dignity of all is embraced and respected;
where the natural beauty of our seaside resort is conserved and enhanced; and where programs centered
on religion, education, recreation and culture provide opportunities for individual growth and family
enrichment.
Temple History: The Temple was built by Free Will Baptists during a six-week period in the summer of
1881; it was dedicated on August 2nd of that year, which was also the first day of the Assembly Program in
Ocean Park. The octagonal structure represents an architectural style popular at the time. It seats up to 750
people, and is the site of most cultural events.
The Temple is open weekday mornings for meditation and observation.
